I had sent out 4 christmas cards to a bbs member's children, because the mom thought that it would make their day. The other day, I had pm'd the mom to make sure that they got their cards okay. I know that there have been some problems with this person, but of course, the nice person that I am, am always giving those the benefit of the doubt, she logged on yesterday, so I'm sure she got my pm's, no I didn't request a receipt...and I should have. She didn't even pm me back to let me know, when she could have, maybe she was expecting something more then a card, I don't know, but I know that I will never help her out again!!! Patchouli, you may know what I'm talking about...... :o~

I don't know who you are talking about.. but I know sometimes I don't get a pop up notifying me of a pm.. and I don't always look.. so I have had pm's sit there for a few days before... hopefully thats all it is..... but that was nice of you to do.

That was very nice of you to send her kids cards. It was extremely rude of her to ignore your pm and not thank you. Don't let one bad apple spoil the barrel. There are a lot of nice and appreciative people on this board. The good outweigh the bad. :)

I also have sent cards AND gifts....without a thanks or acknowledgement (sp)of any kind. I always include my BBS Id when I send things, so that can't honestly be used as an excuse, but a private pm to say it arrived would be nice. tnfuhs, that was very thoughtful of you to do that, and Im sorry you have been treated rudely. I understand you're not wanting to help her again, there's a few on here I won't again, either.

Someone like that ruins it for the rest of us. I am sorry. I would have thanked you a million times!*!*

So to all of you kind hearted people... THANK YOU.... Now adays there aren't many left. I thank everyone.. even if it was a simple thing like hold the door 2 seconds so I could grab it.

I'm sorry that she didn't acknowledge you. She is on the bad traders list so I'm really not surprised. It only takes a second to say thank you. I don't know why some people have trouble with that.

I have sent a couple of cards and never got thanked for either one if i recall. NOt the i expected it. It would be a nice jesture. but if they get alot it would take awhile. And if they made a post i could have missed it. And i'm with who ever posted about pm's. Mine can sit there awhile also. I don't always look to see if i have them. I'm not ignoring. Just sometimes, unless i have a trade etc, don't think to look up there.

That is awful. I am new to this site, but I always try to say thank you. I am not a Christmas card sender, but I always try to email a thank you when people send me one, or my kids.
